Artist: Janis Joplin Song: Piece Of My Heart Album: I don't really know. I know it's on the Greatest Hits album.
E: 022100 A: 007655 B: 009877 C: X35555 B2:X24444 D: X57777 lower case letters are used to denote single notes.
It was difficult for me to accurately correspond the chords and the words, so here's the shortcut I'm using:
VERSE: E, A, B, A, E, repeat throughout verse.
BRIDGE: C, B2, D, B2 Hold on to B2 "...I want you to come on, come on, come on, come on and TAKE IT! Take another little piece of my heart..."
c b a E "You know you got it, if it makes you feel good..."
This transcription could be miles off or totally on the money, but this is how I figured it out, and this is how I play it. I'm not going to post the lyrics right now, but I will if I get E-mail requesting such. Enjoy!
No Worries! Bill Schofield (and Caroline)
Note: I added chords to the lyrics-only version recently put on the OLGA Song: Piece Of My Heart Astist: Janis Joplin Written by: J.Ragovoy-B.Berns
INTRO:
Come on! Come on! Come on! Come on!
VERSE 1:
Didn't I make you feel like you were the only man?
Yeah, and didn't I give you nearly ev'rthing that a woman possibly can?
Honey you know I did!
Bridge 1:
But each time I tell my self that I, that I think I've had enough
Oh, but I'm gonna show ya baby, that a woman can be tough
I want you to come on, come on, come on, come on and
CHORUS:
TAKE IT! Take another little piece of my heart now baby,
(Break a) Break another little bit of my heart, now darlin' yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Well you know you got it if it makes you feel good, oh yes indeed.
VERSE 2: You're out on the streets, lookin' good, and baby deep down in your heart, I guess you know that it ain't right Nowb, nowb, nowb, nowb, nowb, nowb hear me when I cry at night Yeah, but I cry all the time!

SOLO F#m A B (repeat 4x) C#m B D B
BRIDGE3:
I need you to come on, come on, come on, come on, and
CHORUS (rest) Well you know you go it (SCREEEAAAAM!!!!!)
CHORUS
These are the best I could come up with from listening to the CD. Words like "nowb" are typed correctly, it just sounds like that's what she's singing according to the CD. Any corrections are welcome. Thanks everyone for being patient. I sent in "Waste" by Phish to OLGA a few weeks ago, so who knows how ling it will take to get this posted. In any case, ENJOY! You may have to listen to the CD to get the correct timing and the improv on each chorus.
